Meditation: A simple yet profound practice. Learn to quiet your mind by focusing on the breath. When the mind becomes still, the fog of our emotions drops away, revealing reality more clearly, allowing us to make decisions from a calm center. We can enjoy life’s pleasures and experience it’s troubles, both large and small, without losing our equilibrium. Meditation helps keep the mind and body in harmony and balance.
9-10 am Saturdays starting Sept. 17

One Thing Tai Chi Practice is Not (via Calm Chicago’s Blog)
In Stress reduction, Tai Chi on May 21, 2011 at 5:05 amSince tomorrow is the new Buddhist Meditation Center opening in Little Village in Chicago it feels like a good time to bring this post back.
Why?
Because as the potential for new teaching, new students arises it’s a time to reassess how the teaching occurs. To ask, what is most important to say, to share.
If a new person asks, so what’s tai chi and why should I do it? What does a good teacher say?
I feel like Popeye. I want to say, “Eat your spinach! It’s good for you.”
So, with tai chi, we can say, tai chi has this and that benefit to you but in the end, in order to really understand, a person has to do it themselves.
Tai chi can help you reduce stress and be healthier in the body and the mind. How do these things happen? You have to do it and see for yourself.
